Vaibhav’s latest outing Ranam Aram Thavarel is all set to make its OTT debut debut, less than two months after its theatrical release. The Tamil film, which hit the big screens on February 23, is directed by Sherief. Apart from Vaibhav, the crime thriller also stars Tanya Hope and Nandita Swetha as the female leads. 

The crime thriller will be available for streaming on Amazon Prime Video, starting from April 19, according to the latest reports. 

Ranam trailer and plot

Going by the trailer, the film revolves around a facial reconstruction artist's quest to find a serial killer. The trailer of the film opens with a crime scene where cops find an unrecognisable body. The police are surprised to see the woman's body because of her damaged face. When the cops are unable to identify her, they turn to Vaibhav's character Shiva, a facial reconstruction artist. Known for his ability to recognise deformed corpses, he helps the investigators in solving this case. But Shiva faces a difficult turn in the case that makes it hard for him to figure out the real reason behind the serial killer's actions. How he manages to tackle the killer and help the cops in solving the cast forms the crux of the story.   

Despite its gripping genre, the film did not do very well at the box office and is expected to garner more traction with its OTT release. Earlier, upon its release, the film met with criticism for its weak screenplay and for its predictable storyline.
